Unbanded Spouse



Recommended Posts

My answer is a definate yes. My DH has lost 33 pounds since I've been banded. We're sharing more meals instead of each having our own, he's more conscious of what he eats and tries to stay away from white flour, sugar and other carbs. He says because I'm eating less it's made him fully aware of how he was eating and needed to cut down. He hasn't been suffering from any cravings because if he wants it he waits until the weekend to have a little of whatever it is. He's given up soda along with me too. He's been a great help to me...making my meals. Trying to make sure the meats are tender and juicy so they go down right and he constantly reminds me to drink my Water. I'm soooo bad with that lol. I'm lucky to have him and his support. I help him by not buying the junk that tempts him and by buying things that are made from whole grains etc. He's doing very well. So well that I told my surgeon we got a two for one deal with my band :)

Yes, here, too! DH has lost his eating buddy. When he sees me eating less, he feels guilty going back for seconds (or thirds). He should lose about 30 lbs and has lost about 10 so far. I think that is just so cool. :)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
